The interfaces I have designed, from a Chicago agency site to a clinical app, a group dining flow, and a public eligibility map.
UI/UX Design Intern: Designed a two-sided product used by 10K+ patients daily across 200+ clinics: a patient app and a clinician dashboard that share data, not a tone. Wrote the patient rules before the screens: no calorie counts, a pet that never cries or gets thin, streaks with rest days, and crisis routing to 988 or 911. Structured the clinician desk from roster to chart, with a family view that sees meals and mood but never the journal, AI chats, or clinical notes. Turned discovery with 229+ clinicians into three audiences and three visibility rules, on the web and in a phone shell of the same chart.
Web Design Intern: Designed the agency site so the headline is the layout. “Marketing that moves” is set large enough to be the picture, on a black field with one blue. Split the first screen into two actions: Start Your Campaign for someone ready to talk, and View Our Work for someone who is not. Numbered the offer, brand strategy, digital campaigns, and content creation, so a small-business buyer can scan it without a paragraph. Placed the public proof, 10+ campaigns, 17M+ views, and 98% satisfaction, before the services, and closed the page on a short contact form instead of another menu.
Software Engineer Intern: Shadowed underwriting staff to audit the internal web apps they used daily, mapped repeated manual steps, and redesigned the workflow into automated screens, saving 4,500+ hours a year.
Product Design Intern: Talked with 200+ people about group dining with allergies and moved the whole flow into the iMessage thread where the decision already happens. Designed the path as restrictions already on the members, a short list that satisfies the whole group, a vote, and a booking, instead of a standalone restaurant browser. Required a verified menu on the restaurant side, because an unverified “we can do gluten-free” line is how people get hurt.
Design & Delivery Lead: Led a four-person team that replaced a manual eligibility check with a map staff can search and update themselves, saving the client $100,000+ a year. Separated the reader’s task from the editor’s: a map, a city switch, search, and polygons whose color is the program, plus a written path for drawing, naming, and reverting a shape. Kept color and label in one manifest so the legend cannot drift from the shapes, across Des Moines and Cedar Rapids.
